The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a fairly level landscape on the N outskirts of Navan Town. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m) defined by a single continuous fosse was recorded on a series of aerial photographs taken by the National Monuments Service from August 1992. It is also faintly visible on Digital Globe images (2011-13).
